This subject extends students comprehension of the fundemental problems of computer vision and state-of-the-art solutions. Topics covered in detail include: image acquisition, sampling and quantisation; image segmentation, point, line and edge detection, and thresholding; geometric frameworks for vision, single view and two views; camera calibration; stereopsis, the correspondence problem and epipolar geometry; motion and optical flow; recognition, invariants, appearance and geometric-based identification; pose estimation in perspective images. The course includes an extensive practical component that provides the students with a tool box of skills in image processing and computer vision.

Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion, students will have the knowledge and skills to:

1.  Understand the foundations of modern computer vision theory, problem and state of the art solutions. 
2.  Implement and test some fundamental computer vision algorithms e.g. image filtering, restoration, image segmentation, camera calibration.
3.   Analyse and evaluate critically the building and integration of computer vision algorithms and systems.
4.  Design and demonstrate a working computer vision system through  team research project, and project report, presentation. 
5.  Continue to critically review and assess scientific literature and apply the knowledge and skills gained from the course in developing innovative applications.

The ANU uses Turnitin to enhance student citation and referencing techniques, and to assess assignment submissions as a component of the University's approach to managing Academic Integrity. While the use of Turnitin is not mandatory, the ANU highly recommends Turnitin is used by both teaching staff and students.
